25.10.14

Written by the band’s guitarist, Karl Precoda, Halloween was featured in The Dream Syndicate’s 1982 album, The Days Of Wine And Roses.

In 6 minutes and only a few lines of lyrics, The Dream Syndicate’s Halloween, tells the story of a twisted person who draws someone into enticement, claiming that things on TV aren’t always real, while the music works in different dynamics, with softer parts that lead into forceful explosions.

In general, The Days Of Wine And Roses was one of the best things to come out under the Paisley Underground flag.
